LONGEVITY. Died, earlyyesterday morning, in his apart men6 in St..lione's'P'alace, Mr. ELDRCD, iu the 100111 year of his age. He was Page of the Pre sence to King,Geoaott the Second, whidi office he May be said to have filled during three reigns; and althciugli he filled it correctly, being very at tentive to his duty;' yet, extraordinary to relate, he never received any promotion. He was much respected and esteemed . by all the attendants at Court, and was very attentive to the . females who were admitted into.the State-tooth, in St. James's Palace; Of which he had the control on Court days'. He poSsessed a great' flow of spirits till the last, and had •soinerhing to say to every person. At other times, when he was inclined to pass jokes upon hiseating•alid=drinking., 'it would be of a reverse Oscription, -by saying, he never got a good dinner but. in the wait season, meaning,. as 'much as•he could eat, and then he got a feast, as his bOard wages Wet e.bot seveupence-halfpermy a. day, which he reckoned a fast► He ate and drank very heartily ; his favourite, beverage was porter, and he would often drink as much as three quarts in a day. When he drank spirits, it was British R ein, and, occasionally, be toob; gin and water; he 'smoked tobacco incessantly, his favourite dinner seas a rump steak, of which he would eilt a poufid, • and this course of life he continued till kb o l i t a fortnight 'past. His b ,, dily 'strength did not fail him till very lately.
